In re J.F., 2024 UT App 178 (per curiam)
Child Welfare
Father appealed the juvenile court’s order awarding custody of Child to Stepmother. The Utah Court of Appeals dismissed the appeal as untimely.
- Practice tip: In a child welfare case, the time to file a notice of appeal commences on the day that the judgment is entered, regardless of the date that the parties receive notice of the entry of the judgment. However, a party may file a motion for reinstatement within forty-five days of the order’s entry.
